I said a decent chance that 2 out of the 4 I listed get knocked out. So if VGK, NAS, WPG all win their series that you listed then it's just 1 out of 4 knocked out - so not guaranteed 2 out of 4.
As long as Flames stay in first though it's guaranteed that one of SJS or VGK go home first round and that could really sting for one of those teams - especially San Jose.
Vegas still has a pretty open window after this season but I feel like this is probably San Jose's last best shot. And now if the standings stay as they are they most likely would have to go through Vegas, Calgary, Nashville/Winnipeg, & Tampa to win.
Ouch.
